TERRIBLE LOSS OF LIFE.
Burning of Variety Theater at Hurie
WISCONSIN,.

Burning of Variety Theater at Hurley,
Wisconsin.
HURLEY, Wis, July 10.-Fire broke out
on the stage of the Alcaser Theater at
O'Clock last night, and within an hour the
entire business part of the town was in
flames, while eleven persons had persisted
in the tbeater. The charred remains of
nine people have been taken from the
ruins. The loss is fully half q million
dollars. The Alcsser was variety theater
chiefly frequented by miners aud was one
OF The TeS0ftR OF UnsavOry repute associated
with the notorious dance houses OF the
mining regions. Only a small audience
bad gathered when the fire broke out, aud
they scrambled out in a hurry. Several
of the actors, however, rushed up stairs to
save their wardrobe and when they sought
to escape found that they were hemmed in
on all sides, the flames having spread
through the wooden building with In
credible rapidity. How they struggled to
flee will never be known. as none of them
except Sadie Wells and Mabel Powers we're
ever seen again. The former appeared at
q second story window aud called piteouslY
upon the crowd outside to save her. Be-
fore hand could be raised the flames
reached her and communicated to her
clothing. She made a frantic effort to
jump through the window, then with a
piercing Shrek fell in the furnace below.
Mabel Powers had reached third story
window; she jumped and was go badly in
iured that her recovery is doubtful
Among those who persisted in the theater
were Frank Young, Sadie McCabe and
- Jackson, colored comedians; Fillie
Moore, song and dance artist; Mabel Good
rich and husband; Sadie Wells, Mrs. Fem
ton, and two or three others whose names
are not known. The Alcsser was in the
heart of the city. Loss, $500 900; insurance,
very small.
The following additional names of dead
are given: j. w. Vanquick, Samuel
Haley, Laurie Brainer. 1t is probable that
John Jarrett, the stage carpenter, will die
from his injuries. Jennie Sheridan, an
actress who lesped from the third story
was also severely hurt. She says she tried
to persuade several others to jump. but
they delayed and the floor fell in taking
them with it.

LAST ACT OF The DRAMA.
The Pspal Brief Ordering the E.comm

The Pspal Brief Ordering the Excomma.
nication of DIR. McGlynn Received.
New YORK, July 9.-The bolt that has
for weeks been hanging over the head Of
DR.. McGlynn has fallen. He has been ex-
communicated, and henceforth will be to
the Church OF Rome as though he had
never lived.
A Mail and Express reporter learned
this positively this morning, at Archbish-
op Corrigan's residence, that Papal brief
ordering the formal accommodation had
been received, and that accompanied by a
letter from the Archbishop Corrigan, I it
would be read in all the Catholic churches
of this diocese to morrow.
DR.. Mcdonnell had but one copy of the
decree when the Mail and Express reporter
called at the palace. Another had been
given to the printer. DR.. Mcdonnell de-
clined to part with his copy.
The papal brief is not long, but it is
very much to the point. 1t sets forth the
contumacy of the ex-Priest and refers with
sorrow to his persistency in defying the
church which has been so anxious to see
him repent and do penance for the scandal
that he has provoked. 1t goes on at some
length to explain the necessity of the
present act, compliments Archbishop Cor
rigan on his frmness and discretion and
ends by instructing him TO publish the
decree of the diocese at once.
The letter from the Archbishop will re-
cite anew the anxious efforts of the local
church and authorities to bring DR.. Nc
Glynn to proper sense of his duties as
priest, and conclude by exhorting the
faithful to obey implicitly the mandate
from Rome with reference to the I'M
frocked priest.
This is the last act in the strange drama
so far as the church itself is concerned.
DR.. McGlynn is entirely cut off from it,
and Catholics are not supposed to associate
with him. ALI the sacraments are with
held from him. The priest who should
even give him absoluuon on his dying
bed would be liable to be unfrocked.

The American girl is not content to loll

She drives. Nothing faxes her, aud occa-

ter, saw big T-cart rolling down the
drive with an amount of pomposity, noise,
and show that would shame an old-time
circus band-wagon. 1t was a magnificent
cart. The wheels were red and very big
and heavy, and body bottle green, and
the seats higher than the top of the aver
age closed carrisge. On the seat holding
the big white ribbons in her tiny hands sat
q girl of perhaps 10 years, with slim arms,
delicate features, and fragile waist. She
held her hands well up. with the whip
hanging crosswise, and her feet were brac-
ed firmly. By her side sat q serene and
placid young woman of about the same
age, who lolled back gracefully under a
crimson parasol, and who seemed to regard
her driver with the most serene confidence.
On the rear seat was big English groom
with his hands clasped on his knees and
his eyes half starting from his head. There
were ten thousand carriages whirliDg along
the park, and the girl on the box seat
missed abont nine thousand of them by
nothing less than a miracle. She was able
to guidelihe horses by a mighty tug on
one rein or the other, but all the rest had
to be left to their training. 1t was evident
that they scarcely knew she WIS at the
other end of the reiDs.

Ignoring the Ioters,ate Commerce Law

Ignoring the Iotersiate Commerce Law.
CHICAGO July 8 Receiver McNulta, of
the Wabash & Eastern railway, has de-
cided to ignore section of the Interstate
commerce law in 20 far ss it applies to
traffic over his lines from Peoria or Chi
csgo TO the East. To compete for through
traffic from Peoria To the East, his ROAD
being a circuitous route, is compelled to
make the same rate or less than is made
by other competing lines
The Peoria rate, as now established,
Gen. McNulta says, is low enough, and he
takes the same position as regards the rate
from Jacksonville. He, therefore, has de-
cided to take through business from Peoria
at ITO per cent. of the Chicago rate, and at
the same time continue to charge 100 per
cent. from Jacksonville, and correspond
ingly from intermediate stations, thus
making the rate for the long haul from
Peoria 10 per cent. less than for the shorter
one from Jacksonville. He takes the same
position as regards East-bound traffic from
Chicago. To take business East from Chi
csgo over his line circuitous route via
Moment, Ill, has to be taken.

ANTI-PoVERTY MEETING.
DIR. mcGIynn enthusiastically Received a
the Acade envy of Music.


NEW YORK, July 10.-The anti-poverty
meeting tonight was the largest yet held,
many persons being drawn thither, no
doubt, in view of the recent excommuni-
cation of DR.. McGlynn. The Academy OF
Music was crammed, and the management
found it necessary to hire Irving hall, di-
rectly opposite, for an overflow meeting.
This, too, was coon packed and hundreds
were turned away, unable to find admis-
sion.
James ]. Gahan, of the Catholic Herald,
presided over the Academy meeting, and
John Feeny over that in Irving hall.
A choir composed of members OF DR..
McGlynn's old church struck up March
ing TO Freedom" to the air of Marching
Through Georgia" as the Dsctor entered
the Academy. The effect was electrical.
The burst of applause from 1900 throats
was carried to the crowds in the street and
thence to the Irving hall meeting.
Chairman Gahan said in his introduce
tory speech: "We are here tonight to let
Rome know that in matters political not
one jot of our allegiance is rendered to any
cover or potentate, but in its entirety is
given to the laws and constitution of the
United States. [Cheers All of you went

a holy man whose very shoe latches they
are unworthy to unite, they go to the
daily press to promulgate their edicts.
They do not publish them from their holy
pulpits."
Or. McGlynn was received with vocifer-
GUS applause. During the course of his
speech he said: '0ur God is merciful

Indiana Democrats After the Scalp of
Jerome q. burnett.
Special to the Sentinel.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., July S.-The Indiana
Democrats are in very bad humor over the
failure of Treasurer Hyatt to remove
Jerome G. Burnett, chief of the National
Bank division in the Treasury department.
They have good cause to be. Burnett was
one Of Oliver 2. MortOn's tried and trusted
and truest Heutenants. He was recon-
mended to his present place by Morton
for especially meriterous services in be-
half OF the G. o. P, aud every Indiana
Democrat knows what that means for
Oliver Morton made no mistake in the
selection of his instrument.
While nothing is alleged against Mr..
Burnett personally, yet it is a fact that
he has been in a position, either state or
federal, since 1861, and was at one time
secretary of the State Republican Commit
tee of Indiana, and held for several terms
the position of deputy auditor of state un-
der a Republican chief. The Indiana
Democrats think that if there ever was an
offensive partisan, it is Mr.. Jerome G. Bur-
nett.
They do not propose to abide by the de-
cision of Mr.. Hya tt. but are determined to
carry the thing to the President and get
his scalp. They contend that there are
plenty of competent men in Indiana who
can fill the place, and think that it will
have a healthy effect to take the "indis-
pensable' stronghold and Burnett up.

Ny wounded dove, oh, turn thee not away;
l meant not, love, those cruel words to say;
Oh, hide not now thy peerless face at last,
Let ME atone before my watch is past.
Before The mystic night OF death ensnrouds my
parting dsy.
Let me this one sweet parting mem'ry keep,
Ere Azrael lulls my fainting soul to sleep;
Fold me once more within thy fond embrace,
Lay now thy head in its accustomed place;
Forget the bitter tears, dear love, caused thine
eyes to weep.
Before die, oh love- before die
Bend on my face thy wiStful azure eye,
And soOth me with thy voices teuder sound;
Before the shades OF death have gathered
round;
Oh, say but once thou Lowest me; but orce, be-
fore die.
Before lay my aching heart to rest.
Oh, let me strain thee, to my heaving breast;
Oh, say but once my darling, forgive"
For thus TO die were sweeter than to live
Thus would die mine own; thus would die
forever best.
